Mothers Instinct

Soooo im not sure if its just me but i feel like it will be forever until i find out what gender this baby is going to be! I am currently 5 months and well i personally think ill die if i have to wait any longer. Many of you may ask what is taking so long? Well let me explain the story behind what is making this drag on forever!
Alright here it is. When i first found out i was prego out insurance was through blue sheild. I loved my doctor but our insurance was really expensive each month and only covered 70% which isnt a lot when you had as many tests done on you and blood drawn from you as i did. Well amazingly in this economy jordan was blessed to get a job through wells fargo which has been the best thing ever. We have benifits for anything you can imagine which i awesome and saving us a million dollars a month. (Who knew life could be less stressful!) Anyways while we were researching which insurance company and health insurance policy would be the best and save us the most is med. bills it was Kaiser. Unfourtounitly i had to switch doctors, and the doctor i was recommended was gonna take forever to be able to see me. I have an appointment on Monday and feel as anxious as a kid who is going to Disneyland for there first time. I have thought about it all week long! I'm going to beg here to give me an ultrasound right there and then at this appointment and very well might cry if i have to wait any longer. 
I must worn you all that if i let you all know its a boy you might be surprised but i have felt from day one that it is 90% sure to be a boy! I guess you could say that's my motherly intuition kicking in! I will be on top of the world if it is either one but feel that the reason my belly is forming as if i have a growing basketball in it is because it a boy. My sisters tended to gain more belly weight and carry their babies wider when it was a girl inside. So far all of our pregnancies have been extremely similar so I'm counting on it. Anyways sorry if i bore any of you just thought i should write at least one blog a month and also thought i would explain as to why we still don"t know what gender our baby is. haha
I will be sure to keep you all posted after Monday! :)

Well i have to apologize for not being very good at the blog thing.  I will though use the excuse that it has been a very busy few weeks and that does have a little something to do with it! i just have to say how excited i am for this Christmas, not for any particular reason but just for the plain fact that it certainly is the best time of the year! Being young and unfortunately not wealthy what-so-ever, i have realized this year that the gifts are not what matter but instead just enjoying what we do have. I'm sure i have a little bit more Christmas cheer in my heart this year partly because i know this new year is going to be a gift itself. I am so excited to think of the blessing that are to come our way.  We hope you all have an amazing holiday season and we love you all! Merry Christmas!

This is us!

So since I am one of those people who always enjoys looking at other peoples lives and the new and interesting things they are up to, I finally decided that we should start our own blog. Now that our life is becoming a little more interesting and not just about Jordan and I and our not so exciting life of working and school.  I am proud to announce that we have another addition to the family that we are very excited about. Though he or she is not born yet and will not be expected until June 14th or around then, it's still fun for us to share our new adventure with all of you! I am currently 12 weeks prego, and it has been not such an exciting 12 weeks other than the fact that knowing we are going to have a baby, which is the most exciting thing ever. I am hoping I can feel better my second trimester. We have been to 3 appointments already and tomorrow will be my fourth. I have had two ultra sounds so far and hopefully tomorrow I will get to hear that tiny little heart that we've only had the chance to see beating. To all of you who have already experienced this, isn't it the most amazing thing to know that you have that tiny little life inside of you, relying on you ? A little intimidating I will admit and though at times I wish someone else could just go through the not so fun days for me I wouldn't change anything about my life for anything in the world. How blessed we are to have this amazing blessing coming our way. I will be sure to keep you all updated on the details as we go along.
